About This Sample Combination Resume for a PR / Communications Specialist

Harry has a steady career history, filled with lots of variety to interest a hiring manager. There's no hidden agenda; he wants to advance his career! Here's how his resume helps him do that.

Job Objective statement. Russell stated two job objectives (PR / Communications Specialist and Event Planner) at the top of his resume. He's open to either job, as they are both in the field of promotions and either one would be a step up in his career.

Summary of Qualifications section. Notice how the first bullet point statement uses columns to make Russell's key assets stand out. This type of formatting is a great way to catch the reader's eye in her first scan of the resume.

Skill headings under Professional Experience. Skill headings under the first job title help Russell show that although his job title was Assistant, he was developing and using skills required for his more advanced job objective in promotions. Even if the employer doesn't read the bullet points word for word, she will see from the skill headings that Russell has relevant experience for the job he seeks.
